Turks and Caicos Islands: 5 Day Forecast
Ahoy from Mudjin Harbour on Middle Caicos, Boaby Rock Point on Grand Turk, and Grace Bay on Providenciales. For today at Mudjin Harbour, sunrise is at 6:42 AM, sunset at 6:29 PM, and the moon be 0% lit. Skies clear out nicely tonight, so stargazing may be a fine choice, and just after sunset ye may spot bright Venus low in the western sky.
Friday: Across the islands, the day starts cloudier in Mudjin Harbour and Grace Bay, with thick cloud cover near 90 to 100 percent and light showers before dawn, while Boaby Rock Point begins wetter with heavier overnight rain easing after sunrise. Morning temperatures run about 81 to 84 F, with humidity in the mid to upper 70s making it feel like 85 to 93 F. By afternoon, all three spots warm into the mid 80s, and with humidity around 77 to 80 percent it will feel like the mid 90s near Grace Bay and Grand Turk, and close to 100 F at Mudjin Harbour. Winds stay from the SE turning E later, mostly 14 to 20 MPH, strongest at Boaby Rock Point and Grace Bay. Seas run 3 feet at Grace Bay and 4 feet at Mudjin and Grand Turk, so beachgoing looks better than long offshore runs. Around dinner time, Mudjin and Grace Bay turn less cloudy with only a slight chance of a passing sprinkle, while Grand Turk stays breezy and mostly cloudy but still dry for outdoor tables. Biggest difference today: Boaby Rock Point is noticeably windier than the rest, while Grace Bay has the smallest waves.
Saturday: Tomorrow looks brighter and drier for most of the country. Mudjin Harbour starts clear with just 5 percent cloud cover overnight and through the morning, Grace Bay stays mostly sunny all day, and Boaby Rock Point turns from some leftover night clouds into a bright day as well. Early temperatures hold near 84 F, with humidity in the mid to upper 70s making it feel like 92 to 95 F. Through the afternoon, temperatures reach about 84 to 86 F, and with humidity around 75 to 78 percent it will feel like the mid to upper 90s. Winds blow from the E around 16 to 21 MPH, strongest again at Grand Turk and Grace Bay, lighter at Mudjin Harbour. Seas are mostly 4 feet, though Grand Turk and Mudjin briefly push to 5 feet late, while Grace Bay dips to 3 feet in the afternoon for a nicer boating window. Rain signals stay light enough most of the day that many crews may not notice much beyond a passing sunshower, though Mudjin shows a slightly more active midday shower chance than the other two spots. For dinner, conditions stay warm, breezy, and mostly fair at all three locations. Biggest difference tomorrow: Grace Bay offers the smoothest afternoon water, while Boaby Rock Point remains the windiest.
